THE SAVAGE WAY.
How the Indian Treats an In
iurY-OId-T Time Methods.

The savage Is emphatically the child of
nature. He lives close to nature; his only
education is gained il natures school,
When the Indian receives an injury, he
does not seek cure in mineral poisons,
but binds on the simple leaf, administers
the herbal tea, and, with NATURES aid,
comes natural recovery.
Our rugged ancestors, who pierced the
wilderness, built their uncouth but com
Portable log cabins and started the clear
ings in the woods, which, in time, became
the broad, fertile fields of the modern
farmer, found in roots and herbs that lay
close at hand natures potent remedies
for all their common ailments. 1t was
only in very serious cases they sent for
old Saddle bags with his physic, which
quite as often killed as cured.
Latter day society has wan6.Ee9 TOO far
away from nature, in every way, for its
own good. Our grandfathers and grand
mothers lived wholesomer, purer, better,
| healthier, more natural lives than we do.
Their minds were not filled with noxious
isms, nor their bodies saturated with
poisonous drugs.

The proprietors of Warmers Log Cabin
Remedies have thought so, and have put
on the market number of these pure
vegetable preparations, made from formu-
las secured after patient searching into
the annals of the past, so that those who
want them need not be without them.
Among these Log Cabin remedies will
be found LOG Cabin Sarsaparilla," for
the blood; LOG Cabin Hops and Buchu

LOG Cabin Cough and Consumption

strengthening and renewing the hair;
Log Cabin Extract" for both external
and internal application; LOG Cabin

old but effective remHdy for catarrh,
